BORING FOR GAS.
Difficulties Experienced in Managing and
Controlling Powerful Wells.

Difhculties Experienced in Managing and
Controlling Powerful Wells.
Boring for gas is exactly like boring
for oil, in all its workings; but the after
operations of pumping and packing, as
in the case of some oil-wells to raise
the oil, are not necessary in gas-wells
If the gas is there, it will come up of its
own free will and accord, and come
with rush, blowing tools and every
thing else out of the well before it. In
deed, gas men would often be as glad
to keep their treasure down as oil men
are to get theirs up. The great pres
sure at which it is confined in the earth,
and the corresponding force with which
it escapes from the well, makes it some
what hard to manage or control. This
pressure is enormous-as high as five
hundreds pounds to the square inch in
some cases where it has been guaged.
In the great McGugin well, which was
not guaged, the pressure is estimated
to have reached eight hundred pounds
to the square inch. Any attempt
to confine the gas in this we'll
for the purpose of measuring it
would doubtless have resulted in send
mgthe iron casing flying from the well,
orin producing other effects more start
Ing and costly than satisfactory or agree
able. Indeed, until recently, no plan
had been devised by which the flow Of
gas from well could be stopped or re-
duced The quantity of gas that
escapes from some wells is enormous,
but probably no correct estimate of it
has yet been made. Where the gas is
''piped" away to mills and houses, all
that comes from the well may besused;
but if it is not all used, the remainder
must be allowed to escape into the air.
| This is done at the regulator, where il
is burned. The regulator is an ar.
rangement of pipes and valves, placed
between the gas-well and the town sup
| plieI with the gas. It allows only JUS
as much gas as is being burned in tn.
town to go on through the pipes, ant
so reduces to proper and safe poin
the dangerously high pressure of tn,
]! gas as it comes rushing along from th'
we'll. The temperature of the gas as j
comes from the wells is about forty-fv'

BORROWING MONEY.
Honest Tins compliment" Not Quite Ap.

Honest Tins "Complfment" Not Quite Ap
preciated by Bank Manager.
Borrowing money is a very favorite
practice with the Irish farmer; and until
recent period the banks made the
qualification of this taste extremely
easy. A Cork car driver lately said to
his fare: why, sir, while ago a
farmer need only to put on 'clane'
shirt, and go to the bank, and he'd get
what he wanted" The expectations.
however, of some of the borrowers were
too great, as the following incident
which really occurred, very amusingly
shows. A certain small farmer, whom
we shall call Tim for convenience,
called upon the manager of the National
Bank, in town in the northeast Of
the county of Cork. The following
dialogue ensued: '.Good morning, yer
honor, l called about little business;
and though there are other banks in
the town, thought I'd give yer honor
the compliment" T." ''Well, Tim, and
what is the business?' "Well, yer
honor, the interest on Kitty Keetfe's
farm is selling off, and l want to rise
eight hundred pounds to buy it. ''Non-
sense, Tim; the interest in her farm
isn't worth any thing like that But
suppose / was fool enough to lend You
this money, how would you ever pay ii
back?" Is it pay it agin, yer honor'
Nothin' aisier in life, Sure, the young
fellow would get in fortune when he
marlies." 'sAnd may ask. Tim, what
age is the young fellow?" "He's three
years ould yer honor" It need hardly
be said that the manager did not see it
and Tim, in spite Of his wish ITO givt
him the compliment, was refused tn,
loan of eight hundred pounds. Spec

Killing White Grubs.

The larva of the May beetle, usually
called the white grub, is the insect
which most often eats the young pota-
toes, causing the seab or scaly appear
ance of the matured tubers. This larva
lives in the soil three years, and the
best means of eradicating the pest is to
throw out the field from the rotation
and turn in hogs to root out the pest.
In relation to destroying insect pests
generally, the application of salt must
be excessive, so much so as to injure
crops. Lime has no influence on soil
insects unless applied in immoderate
quantities, and even then there is nc
definite conclusion that lime will de.
